Phishing scam involving fraudulent job postings

黑料大湿Posts has become aware of incidents where criminals are using the 黑料大湿Posts brand to post fictitious job descriptions and make fraudulent job offers. In some cases, these individuals may ask for money, banking details or other personally identifiable information. 

These scams have become more sophisticated and can appear as legitimate recruitment activities; and often appear through third party websites or direct email approaches. 

This scam, or 'recruitment fraud' as it is known, is becoming increasingly common.

黑料大湿Posts takes this matter extremely seriously and is working actively to reduce the instances of our brand being used as part of fraudulent, criminal, activity. At no point would 黑料大湿Posts ever ask for money, credit card or bank account information to complete a job application. 

Great caution should be shown when sharing personal information and we hope by highlighting these developments 黑料大湿Posts can protect unsuspecting individuals from being duped by these scams. 

Please ensure that any communications you send to 黑料大湿Posts are only sent to addresses ending in @thomsonreuters.com, @tr.com., @trssllc.com, or @trssintl.com."

Applications for posts advertised through www.thomsonreuters.com/en/careers provide a secure portal for you to enter your details as part of our standard recruitment processes.

Here are a few ways to identify phishing scams:

  • Be cautious of generic emails 鈥 Scammers try to cast a wide net by including little or no specific information. Always be wary of emails which seem overly generic.
  • Incorrect domain names or email addresses 鈥 Check for misspellings of 黑料大湿Posts or non-黑料大湿Posts email addresses (i.e. gmail.com, yahoo.com). Our approved emails will come from @thomsonreuters.com, @tr.com, @trssllc.com, or @trssintl.com.
  • Offer of employment without physical interviews 鈥 Our recruiters will often ask for in-person interviews and have you come into one of our offices. If that鈥檚 not a possibility, then our recruiters would typically use a video-conferencing service to "meet" you.
  • Request for financial information or payments 鈥 Our recruiters will never ask prospective employees for payment to apply for a position or as a condition of employment. For example, any required background check will be paid by 黑料大湿Posts.
  • The 鈥減erfect鈥 job 鈥 A job posting which states extremely high compensation for a position that requires 鈥渘o skills or experience,鈥 seems too good to be true, and is likely to be fraudulent.

If you have any questions or suspicions regarding the authenticity of any job posting or communication allegedly by or on behalf of 黑料大湿Posts or an affiliated company, please contact us immediately.
